About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

- To load the package in a website via a
script
tag without installation and bundlers, use the ES Module available on theesm
branch (see README). - If you are using Deno, visit the
deno
branch (see README for usage intructions). - For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the Universal Module Definition (UMD) build available on the

// returns false
// Set the first element:
arr.set( true );
// Get the first element:
v = arr.get( 0 );
// returns true
By default, the method sets array elements starting at position (index) i = 0
. To set elements starting elsewhere in the array, provide an index argument i
.
var arr = new BooleanArray( 10 );
// Get the fifth element:
var v = arr.get( 4 );
// returns false
// Set the fifth element:
arr.set( true, 4 );
// Get the fifth element:
v = arr.get( 4 );
// returns true
In addition to providing a single value, to set one or more array elements, provide an array-like object containing truthy and falsy values
var arr = new BooleanArray( 10 );
// Define an array of values:
var buf = [ '', 1, null ];
// Set the fifth, sixth, and seventh elements:
arr.set( buf, 4 );
// Get the sixth element:
var v = arr.get( 5 );
// returns true
A few notes:
- If
i
is out-of-bounds, the method throws an error. - If a target array cannot accommodate all values (i.e., the length of source array plus
i
exceeds the target array length), the method throws an error. - If provided a typed array which shares an
ArrayBuffer
with the target array, the method will intelligently copy the source range to the destination range.
Sorts an array in-place.
function compare( a, b ) {
if ( a === false ) {
if ( b === false ) {
return 0;
}
return 1;
}
if ( b === true ) {
return 0;
}
return -1;
}
var arr = new BooleanArray( 3 );
arr.set( true, 0 );
arr.set( false, 1 );
arr.set( true, 2 );
arr.sort( compare );
var v = arr.get( 0 );
// returns true
v = arr.get( 1 );
// returns true
v = arr.get( 2 );
// returns false
The compareFcn
determines the order of the elements. The function is called with the following arguments:
- a: the first boolean value for comparison.
- b: the second boolean value for comparison.
The function should return a number where:
- a negative value indicates that
a
should come beforeb
. - a positive value indicates that
a
should come afterb
. - zero or
NaN
indicates thata
andb
are considered equal.
Returns a new typed array containing the elements in reversed order.
var arr = new BooleanArray( 3 );
arr.set( true, 0 );
arr.set( false, 1 );
arr.set( false, 2 );
var out = arr.toReversed();
// returns <BooleanArray>
var v = out.get( 0 );
// returns false
v = out.get( 1 );
// returns false
v = out.get( 2 );
// returns true
-
While a
BooleanArray
strives to maintain (but does not guarantee) consistency with typed arrays, significant deviations from ECMAScript-defined typed array behavior are as follows:- The constructor does not require the
new
operator. - Accessing array elements using bracket syntax (e.g.,
X[i]
) is not supported. Instead, one must use the.get()
method.
- The constructor does not require the
var Uint8Array = require( '@stdlib/array-uint8' );
var logEach = require( '@stdlib/console-log-each' );
var BooleanArray = require( '@stdlib/array-bool' );
// Create a boolean array by specifying a length:
var out = new BooleanArray( 3 );
logEach( '%s', out );
// Create a boolean array from an array of booleans:
var arr = [ true, false, true ];
out = new BooleanArray( arr );
logEach( '%s', out );
// Create a boolean array from an array buffer:
arr = new Uint8Array( [ 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1 ] );
out = new BooleanArray( arr.buffer );
logEach( '%s', out );
// Create a boolean array from an array buffer view:
arr = new Uint8Array( [ 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1 ] );
out = new BooleanArray( arr.buffer, 1, 2 );
logEach( '%s', out );
console.log( '%s', false );
